The particles that are in an atom: protons, neutrons and electrons The particles that are in protons and neutrons: quarks The four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong force and ...

They're called ghost particles for a reason. They're everywhere—trillions of them constantly stream through everything: our ...

The new map could track these mysterious particles from their origin points and how many of them stirred across the planet, ...

For centuries, the principle of symmetry has guided physicists towards more fundamental truths, but now a slew of shocking ...

For decades, scientists have explored the enigmatic world of fundamental particles, uncovering the building blocks of our universe. But what if some of these particles, once deemed impossible, ...

A group of fundamental particles, long theorised but thought to be physically impossible, might exist after all. Known as paraparticles, they could one day have exotic applications if we ever manage ...

Why didn’t the universe annihilate itself moments after the big bang? A new finding at Cern on the French-Swiss border brings us closer to answering this fundamental question about why matter ...

Quantum mechanics has long classified particles into just two distinct types: fermions and bosons. Now physicists from Rice ...

It’s a fundamental principle of physics that particles with opposite charges attract each other, while those with the same charge repel. But now, scientists at the University of Oxford have found that ...

New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.
